“I am excited that we are able to announce the series with Michigan State University,” Arizona State coach Todd Graham said in a statement. “Scheduling is very important to the overall success of a program and this is the type of matchup that we are seeking to fill our future dates. This series will help build our program.”

Last season, the Spartans finished 13-1, won the Big Ten title and beat Stanford in the Rose Bowl. The Sun Devils finished 10-4, won the Pac-12 South, but lost to Stanford in the conference championship game.
